PROGRAM

IETC.TAMU.EDU

On behalf of the hosts and sponsors of the thirty-sixth Industrial Energy Technology Conference (IETC), welcome! Our program brings together nationally prominent experts from many areas of industrial energy management.

The IETC staff and your hosts, Texas A&M University System’s Energy Systems Laboratory and the Louisiana Department of Natural Resources, along with our many co-sponsors are committed to providing all attendees with a wealth of information that will help them improve the performance of their companies--something to take home and use immediately!

This year’s 2014 Energy Managers’ Workshop builds on its past successes and will again provide a great opportunity for you to expand your energy management proficiency. Eight top energy managers and industry leaders present an extensive workshop agenda entitled: “Energy Management: Strategies and Successful Applications.” The conference will wrap up with a two post-conference workshops. Spirax Sarco Inc. will present “Steam System Workshop” and Christopher Russell will present “Business Case Bootcamp for Energy Managers”.

We are confident that you will profit from the experience and technical expertise of our presenters and panelists, and best of all, the interaction with so many energy professionals in one place.

Dr. R. Neal Elliott, PE2014 IETC Energy Award Winner

Dr. Neal Elliott’s energy efficiency career spans over three decades of outstanding dedication to the field of industrial energy efficiency programs, education, and research at the state and national levels. He is an internationally recognized expert and author on energy efficiency programs and policies, industrial energy policy, combined heat and power, and a highly sought speaker at domestic and international energy conferences.

Since 1993, he has been the Associate Director for Research at the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE), one of the leading energy-efficiency advocacy groups in Washington, D.C. He oversaw the establishment of ACEEE’s State Clean Energy Resource Project that collects data on state energy efficiency policies, managed the development of ACEEE’s annual State Policy Scorecard, and helps prepare state-specific energy efficiency potential and policy assessments. He is also one of the foremost advocates for Combined Heat and Power [CHP] at the national and state levels. Neal is the past president, past board and executive committee member, and past Chair of the Legislative Policy Committee of the U.S. CHP Association. He is frequently asked to testify before Congress and local governments on industrial energy policy and programs.

Prior to joining ACEEE, Elliott was an adjunct associate professor of Civil and Environmental Engineering at Duke University and Senior Engineering Project Manager at the N. C. Alternative Energy Corporation. Elliott has B.S. and M.S. degrees in Mechanical Engineering from North Carolina State University, and a Ph.D. from Duke University in civil and environmental engineering.

Last but not least, he serves generously with his time on the Strategic Advisory Group for the Institute for Industrial Productivity and on the Advisory Board of the Industrial Energy Technology Conference since 1998. He has received numerous energy efficiency awards and is a registered Professional Engineer in North Carolina and holds six U.S. patents.

DuPont Protection Technologies2014 IETC Energy Award Winner

Process steam condensate is recovered and flashed to generate low pressure steam in this DuPont unit operation. The low pressure condensate formerly was flashed further to an atmospheric

flash tank and then that condensate used in the process elsewhere. A compact heat plate and frame heat exchanger was installed to preheat feed using the condensate flow from the low pressure flash tank to the atmospheric flash tank, eliminating the use of injected virgin steam to preheat the feed. In addition to energy savings from injector steam, the preheat via heat exchange lowered the waste water load from this operation by approximately 50%, saving an estimated two million gallons per year. Special mixers were installed that allow for the utilization of the heat recovery equipment under all conditions without severe water hammer. By allowing all condensate to flow through the heat recovery equipment all the time, steam that would have been vented during the bypassed time was productively put through the flash tank and heat recovery equipment.

The approach was innovative for the plant, because they had little experience with welded plate exchangers. In addition, the use of special mixers to eliminate water hammer to allow for maximum utilization of the heat recovery equipment was novel and not normally done. In this case having the ability to mix hot flashing condensate and relatively cold sub cooled condensate was absolutely necessary for the economics of the heat recovery equipment. It also solved a safety issue. The energy savings exceeded the expectations. The feed was able to be heated farther than designed, resulting in greater energy savings. Because of this, more of a volatile component flashed out prior to the unit operation resulting in the plant being able to reduce stripping steam in addition to eliminating injected steam.
